This is a confusing, bad option, which was already disabled in groups,
and this removes it from personal libraries as well. People seem to be
using it mainly because they think annotations are locked into Zotero if
they don't, which is causing them to ask for this to be done
automatically on every edit, which we don't do because it would result
in constant file syncing and file conflicts [1].
We provide multiple export options for exporting PDFs with annotations,
and people can use those when sharing a file with people who don't use
Zotero. Otherwise, if storing annotations in the file is a priority,
they can use an external reader that's not designed to be tightly
integrated into Zotero.
(As a rare hack, it's of course also possible to export the PDF with
annotations, replace the original file, and import the annotations.)

- Adjust text
- Add "Learn More" button with link to sync documentation for
set-up-sync notification
- Show "Don't Show Again" for set-up-sync even on first display
- Don't perform any action when clicking unlinked text
- Use yellow/orange background instead of blue for notification bar
- Prevent text from wrapping out of the bar at narrow window widths
- Use local variable for observer id
There are two:
- Sync never set up (no username in DB) / set up, but unlinked
- Sync set up but auto-sync disabled and sync not completed in 30 days
Checks are trigged on item adds.
- Show "Export Note…"/"Export Notes…" if only notes or attachments
selected
- Don't show export option if only attachments and no embedded notes
(was previously disabled, and still is if all notes or a mixture of
empty notes and attachments)
Closes#2265
There's also new code for showing a different icon for snapshots, files,
and DOI/URL links, like the web library and iOS app, but it's commented
out for now. The bitmap icons create too much visual noise with the
greater information density and hierarchical tree of the desktop app
(not to mention many more low-DPI displays). We can revisit after
switching to SVGs across the board.
Cmd/Ctrl-Shift-T is now used for reopening a closed tab
This is now a View menu option, so macOS users can assign an
app-specific shortcut key for it. For other platforms that can't do
that, Zutilo could add it, and it will be an option if we add general
key-binding configurability in a future version.
Closes#2281
